Naging mas close pa sina Narda at ang kambal. Minsan kasi ay sya ang nagbabantay sa dalawa kapag may ginagawa si Regina.
"Baby, say mama."
"Mamamamama!" Sabi naman ni Maxine at agad na niyakap si Narda, pero biglang tinulak ng marahan ni Florence si Maxine at niyakap naman si Narda.
But Narda can say that she's more close with Maxine than Florence. Lagi kasing hinahanap ni Florence ang mommy nya habang si Maxine naman ay laging nakayakap kay Narda.
Sinabi na ni Regina na clingy talaga si Maxine, kaya naman hinahayaan lang ni Narda na yakapin sya ni Maxine.
Minsan pa nga ay natutulog ito kung saan saan basta may isang body part ni Narda ang nakadikit sa kanya. Tulad nalang ng kamay nito na niyayakap nya sabay matutulog.
Wala nang magawa si Narda kundi hayaan ito at patulugin sa kama nila ni Regina, pero katabi parin nya ito dahil umiiyak si Maxine kapag naramdaman nyang wala si Narda.
"Florence baby, mommy is here!" Masayang sabi ni Regina at agad na tumakbo si Florence.
"Mimi!" Sigaw ni Florence at niyakap ang mommy nya.
"Maxine baby!" Tawag ni Regina kay Maxine at agad na lumapit si Maxine kay Regina.
"Ako hindi mo tatawagin?" Nakapout na sabi ni Narda.
"Bakit anak ba kita?"
"Akala ko ba baby mo ako?" Sagot naman ni Narda.
"Loko loko ka talaga, hays, halika na nga! Gutom na ang mga anak ko." Sabi ni Regina at agad na binuhat ang dalawa, samantalang binuhat naman ni Narda ang dala ni Regina.
Binuksan na ni Narda ang box at nakita ang mga pagkain ng dalawa. Kumuha sya ng biscuit at ibinigay kay Regina para ipakain sa kambal.
Inayos na ni Narda ang mga pinamili ni Regina at pagkatapos nya ay nakita nya si Regina at Florence na nakatulog na, habang si Maxine naman ay papunta sa kanya.

"Is maxine sleepy already?"
"Wawawawawa." Sabi naman ni Maxine.
"Oo nga sleepy na nga, sige tara na, let's sleep?" Nakangiting sabi ni Narda at binuhat na si Maxine.
Ipinatong naman ni Maxine ulo nya sa balikat ni Narda at humikab.
"Hindi pa naman gabi pero ang aga nyong matulog." Bulong ni Narda.
Inihiga na nya si Maxine at Florence sa kuna at sunod naman ay binuhat nya si Regina at inihiga sa kama.
"Tanghaling tapat mga tulog." Sabi ni Narda sa sarili nya.
Nagphone muna sya habang tulog ang tatlo, bigla namang gumalaw si Regina kaya napatingin sya rito.
Ipinatong ni Regina ang ulo nya sa braso ni Narda at niyakap ito.
"Anong oras na?" Tanong ni Regina.
"11:30 am. Tulog ka pa, maaga pa naman." Sabi naman ni Narda.
"Sila Florence tulog?" Tanong nito.
"Oo pati si Maxine, parehas silang nakatulog, ikaw kase tinulugan mo sila." Natatawang sabi ni Narda kay Regina.
"Huh?"
Natawa naman bigla si Narda. "Tinulugan mo sila, kaya natulog nalang din si Florence sa likod mo tapos si Maxine pumunta sakin nagsumbong, tinulugan modaw. Pinatulog ko nalang din."
"Hindi ko alam." Sabi ni Regina at biglang lumingon sa paligid. "Hala eh bakit ako nandito, diba nasa sahig ako?"
"Hays di mo pala naramdaman, eh ano, nagsleep walk ka." Pagsisinungaling ni Narda.
"Hoy! Hindi ako nags-sleep walk noh! Never in my life."
"Eh wala eh, kanina nagsleep walk ka." Sabi ni Narda at umiwas ng tingin.
"Yung totoo, alam ko kapag nagsisinungaling ka."
"Fine." Tanging nasabi ni Narda at bumuntong hininga. "I carried you and the binalibag sa higaan."
Regina laughed. "Binalibag talaga ah?"
Narda just laughed and her phone suddenly rang.

"I will just answer this, Regina. Excuse me." Sabi ni Narda.
"Hello?"
"Narda! Si Leslie to bakla!" Masayang sabi ni Leslie.
"Hoy namiss kita! Kailan tayo magkikita ulit?"
"Kapag free ka, kailan ka ba free?" Tanong ni Leslie.
"Uh.." Tinignan ni Narda si Regina at nakitang nagtitimpla ito ng gatas. "Bukas free ako."
"Ahh, asan ka ngayon? Don't tell me kasama mo si Regina ngayon?"
"Edi don't."
Narinig naman nyang bumuntong hininga si Leslie kaya napatawa sya.
"Oo kasama ko sya ngayon with Maxine and Florence." Sabi naman ni Narda.
"Wow, spending your time with your family ah?" Pang-aasar ni Leslie.
"Bonak! Hindi ko nga alam kung may nararamdaman pa ba ako sa kanya."
"Nako! Wag masyado ibigay ang lahat, tandaan mo, may possibility na mangyari ulit ang dati." Pag-papaalala ni Leslie.
Napabuntong hininga naman si Narda at ngumiti ng kaunti. "Okay po, sige na baka may ginagawa ka dyan."
"Sige sige, bye acclingg." Masayang pag-papaalam nito.
"Bye." Sabi naman ni Narda.
Bumalik na si Narda sa loob at nakitang umiinom na ng gatas ang kambal.
"Who called?" Tanong ni Regina.
Ngumiti naman si Narda. "Si Leslie! Miss na raw nya ako, tinanong nya ako kung kailan daw ako free."
"And what did you say?" Seryosong tanong ni Regina.
Bigla namang kinabahan si Narda. "Uh, sabi ko bukas free ako."
Tumango nalang ni Regina at nagcellphone. Pinuntahan ni Narda ang dalawa ang nilaro ang mga ito.
Rinig na rinig naman ni Regina ang malalakas na tawa ng dalawa, kaya naman agad nya itong vinideohan.
Habang pinapanood nya ang tatlo ay hindi nya mapigilang maisip kung kailan nya makikita na ang mapapangasawa naman nya ang makikipaglaro sa dalawa.
"Hello? Regina?" Sabi ni Narda na kumakaway kaway pa.
"O-oh bakit?"
"May pamunas ka? Pupunasan kolang bibig ni Florence, puro laway."
Kinuha ni Regina ang pamunas ng kambal at agad na pinunasan ni Narda ang mga laway nito.
"Ang cucute nila, Regina." Nakapout na sabi ni Narda.
Ngumiti naman si Regina ng malawak. "Totoo yan, ang cute nila. Manang mana saakin."
"Wait lang, parang ang lakas yata ng hangin." Pabirong sabi ni Narda at himpas naman sya ni Regina.
"Loko loko! Kanino pa ba yan magmamana kundi sakin."
Napailing-iling nalang si Narda at nataranta nang marinig nya ang iyak ni Maxine.
"Mamamam!" Sabi ni Maxine habang umiiyak.
"Mama! Mama is here." Sabi ni Narda at tinawag si Regina.
Alam ni Regina na hindi sya ang hinahanap nito kaya may ginawa syang experiment.
"Kunwari bubuhatin ko sya ah? Tignan natin kung ako ba or ikaw ang tinatawag nya." Sabi ni Regina.
"Sige."
Ginawa na ni Regina pero hindi sumama si Maxine, pero nung si Narda na ay agad itong lumapit at nagpabuhat.
"Talino mo dun." Sabi ni Narda.
"True." Sabi naman ni Regina.

The Legion of Nothing
Nick Klein is your average high school geek--if you can still count as average when your grandfather is a retired superhero, and you've been trained in the martial arts by his friend, a mysterious, immortal mercenary. After his grandfather dies, Nick inherits the last version of the Rocket suit, powered armor that allows him to shrug off bullets, smash through walls, and manipulate sound. Along with it comes the base of his grandfather's superhero team including the team's jet and trophies from forty years of fighting criminals and aliens. Together, Nick and his friends, descendants of his grandfather's teammates, attempt to bring back a superhero team that was originally formed during World War 2. Along the way they'll face the normal problems of high school (bullies, homework, and dating), and the less normal problems like supervillians and mysteries leftover from their grandparents' past. As a story, it uses the conventions of all eras of comics from the 1940s on, ranging from serious to silly. If you're hoping for a grim and gritty story, this isn't it. The Legion of Nothing first debuted on my website legionofnothing.com in 2007. In that period it's updated more than 900 times, is still running, and has had millions of pageviews. The first two years have been released as an ebook, receiving good reviews on Amazon and Goodreads. I hope you'll enjoy it, and that you'll review it and comment. You can also vote for it on Top Web Fiction and rate it on Web Fiction Guide. Member of The Order of Phantasmal Architects.
